About this retreat
Zen Center of New York City's Fire Lotus Temple is offering a three-hour online zazen (seated Zen meditation) intensive on November 21, 2026. The description frames the session around connecting with the still point, making space for the heart-mind and body, and taking refuge — the basic Buddhist act of orienting one's practice toward the Buddha, the teachings, and the community. It is explicitly open to people new to Zen as well as experienced students.
The listing leaves key details unstated. No teacher is named, and there is no information about how the three hours are structured — how many sitting periods, whether there are breaks or live instruction — or how online participation works (platform, live versus recorded). Contact the center for those details before registering. Registration is a flat $10.
Schedules can change — confirm details on Zen Center of New York City/Fire Lotus Temple's website.
